Description
The 0541198-12 is a genuine Textron Aviation spring used to provide spring force in a mechanical assembly. It is fitted to the Skyhawk. It carries an export classification of ECCN 9A991.
Because the 0541198-12 is an original-equipment (OEM) part sourced directly from Textron Aviation, it matches the exact specification and placement called out in the aircraft's type design and maintenance data — assurance a generic substitute cannot offer.
Across the Cessna Skyhawk fleet, correctly identified factory parts like this keep every airframe consistent and configuration-correct.
Parts in a mechanical or control run must match the design geometry to keep rigging, travel, and feel correct. OEM parts arrive to the specification the type design was certified against, preserving both airworthiness and the airframe's documented configuration.
For a regulated aircraft component, correct identification by factory part number is what guarantees the exact form, fit, and function the design calls for. Genuine sourcing means the part matches the drawing exactly, so fit and function are known quantities rather than a gamble at installation.
Genuine factory parts carry the documentation and traceability that maintenance and airworthiness records depend on — assurance a look-alike substitute cannot provide.
Cessna traces to the company Clyde Cessna founded in Wichita, Kansas in 1927; Textron Inc. acquired it in 1992, and since 2014 it has anchored Textron Aviation alongside Beechcraft and Hawker. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is the most-produced aircraft in history, with more than 44,000 built since 1956, and remains in production under Textron Aviation.
